Not sure that union has been making best use of the available talent. Both Italy’s try-scoring wingers against the Wallabies could have been playing on the other team if they’d been snapped up to do so at the right time.

Fair play to you for pointing that out. I can’t say I’m proud of owning Love Beach.

Love Beach came out in the days when I would try hard to find reasons to enjoy new albums by artists I liked. I listened to it far too often. There is nothing good about it. By way of contrast, I do not own and […]

I copied and pasted the link into my browser. It’s an amusing cartoon, but slightly shaming to those who can identify all the prog rock albums being pastiched.

How about Ringo with Harry Nilsson (and Macca too)?

That is very funny indeed. I’ll be chuckling all day as I recall it. I was fed some large and hideously undercooked Jerusalem artichokes recently by the caterers at the Oval cricket ground. Foolishly, I ate […]
